The Lands Department today (December 14) announced that the tender for two petrol filling stations had been awarded on a 21-year land grant at a total premium of $220.86 million.
The sites at Wong Nai Chung Gap Road, Hong Kong (Inland Lot No. 9025) and Victoria Road, Hong Kong (Inland Lot No. 9029) were awarded to Sinopec (Hong Kong) Limited.
"Authority from the Central Tender Board was given to the Lands Department to award the above sites to the highest tenderer," a Government spokesman said.
The successful tender was submitted on the basis of a single amount of tender premium for the purchase of the two sites collectively as one package. These two sites are existing, re-tendered sites for the development of petrol filling stations.
Three tenderers took part in the tender exercise, which produced a total of six tenders: four for the sites individually and two for the two sites collectively as a package.
